Abstract
Abstract The invention relates to a detergent composition comprising lipases. By inclusion of a certain, immunologically defined class of lipases in a detergent composition which comprises a mixture of an anionic and a nonionic detergent, an improved overall detergency is obtained. Typical suitable lipases are obtained from certain Pseudomonas and Chromobacter strains.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
45 words
A detergent composition comprising a mixture of an anionic and a nonionic detergent-active compound and an enzyme, characterised in that the enzyme is a lipase which shows a positive immunological cross-reaction with the antibody of the lipase, producible by the microorganism Pseudomonas fluorescens IAM 1057.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
45 words
A detergent composition comprising a mixture of an anionic and a nonionic detergent-active compound and an enzyme, characterised in that the enzyme is a lipase which shows a positive immunological cross-reaction with the antibody of the lipase, producible by the microorganism Pseudomonas fluorescens IAM 1057.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
37 words
A composition according to claim 1, characterised in that the lipase also shows a positive immunological cross-reaction with the antibody of the lipase, producible by the microorganism Chromobacter viscosum var. lipolyticum NRRLB 3673 or Pseudomonas gladioli .
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
30 words
A composition according to claim 1 or 2, characterised in that the positive immunological cross-reaction showing lipase is a lipase, producible by strains of the Pseudomonas and the Chromobacter genus.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
33 words
A composition according to claim 3, characterised in that the lipase is producible by strains of Pseudomonas fluorescens, of Pseudomonas fragi, of Pseudomonas nitroreducens var. lipolyticum, of Pseudomonas gladioli, and of Chromobacter viscosum.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
37 words
A composition according to claims 1-4, characterised in that the composition contains the lipase iri such an amount, that the final composition has a lipolytic enzyme activity of from 0.005 to 100 LU (lipase units) per mg.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
15 words
A composition according to claims 1-5, characterised in that it further contains a bleaching agent.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
15 words
A composition according to claims 1-7, characterised in that it further contains a proteolytic enzyme.
